9. Have never liked grits |

At school, the cafeteria ladies would cook'em up about once a week, with salt, served with a pat of butter o melting on top x(
However, I did learn I could tolerate them if there were no salt and lots of yummy Mrs. Butterworth's poured like gravy all over'em :9

13. These grits posts are making me hungry for grits. |
|
I have some instant butter-flavored ones in my desk. Guess I'll go fix some, add some more butter, salt and pepper and BacOs.

23. Either butter with black pepper or syrup - salt just doesn't work for me. |
|
Of course, I don't salt melons either - fresh cracked black pepper for me.

31. I was raised in the south and find many southern "delicacies" such as... |
|
boiled peanuts, turnip greens, and collards to be absolutely revolting, but I will defend grits against any and all slurs :)
